3. To: reaganisright (#0) I think that there is a quiet coming over the thought processes of thinking people. They are tired of complaining, tired of the same o same o, and are starting to weigh the costs of action NOT related to elections. IOW, why keep doing the same thing over and over again (electing Republicans or Democrats and expecting honest govt) it is time for real CHANGE, for good or ill.

Seriously, how many times can Schlocky-Lox screaming "AGENT PROVOCATEUR!!" at anyone with differing opinions be considered funny before it's just pathetic?

The moderator has gone insane. Furthermore, she allows her pet idiots, yukon, marguerite, and mad dog, just to name a few, who truly need their throats cut ear to ear, to prattle on incessantly 24/7 without rebuke, etc.

It's distilled insanity now. There used to be some good in it, but it's k00k soup now, top-heavy with birthers, Christers, and assorted other nuts.

Snuffy, Celeste, Danko, Itzl, e_type_jig, et al...they're all more suited for www.peopleofwalmart.com, and the comments are funnier. One of 'em (Celeste) is running around yelling for people to 'succeed' from the union, while Danko is rolling rocks and lamenting how he wishes he had the ability to do stuff because he has the knowledge, poor ol' Izzy just itching to throw the yoke of SERFdumb by the ruling EEE-lites, if he just had the sack to do so. Top it off with SnuffyJoe yelling Commie IMO and poor old Murron writing her screeds on the insides of Lucky Strike wrappers, then typing them in from the Wi-Fi at the East Cousinfuck General Store like dispatches from the war-torn front (SPIT!!), and that's pretty much the whole shebang.

Perhaps I should have just summed up a typical conversation from a new poster and the denizens:

"Hi, I'm new here, but I disagree with you about Sarah Palin and Obama."

"You're a homo/ball-licker/asslicker/c^nt/TOOL."

Aaaw, does it disturb you that the issue of your Dear Kenyan Leader's birth cert won't go away?

I'm sure Keith Olbermann, HuffPo, or the New York Times are FAR more credible. And they NEVER mentions it the Birth Cert. Oh...and don't forget to wear earplugs and HUGE blinders.

What gets me is the number of people there that seem to be dupes, people that now understand that both Bush's screwed us over while feigning conservatism, but yet there they go, running, not walking, back to the GOP trough of slop that is out there.

Come on Blu - there's a cross-section of right-wing/libertarian ideologies at LP...

Problem is there are currently only TWO major parties. Either the GOP gets a face-lift, or a strong enough Third Party is established - THAT'S not gonna happen in time to stop the Commie-Fascist 0bama, is it?

Isn't it odd that the people who find the birth cert issue most disturbing never stop talking about it?

Likewise they remain mum when Nancy Pelosi calls them Nazis. Not surprisingly, they fit in best with Progressives and leftists.

Generally speaking, far too much of the so-called conservative media cannot seem to get out of the health care shell or the racism shell when so much more is going on.

Well, at the current time all hell is breaking loose, but I DO see the conservative media hammering 0bama on many fronts and bashing his foundation. He's become less credible each day. Glen Beck alone is carpet-bombing 0bama EVERY DAY. Where you been bro?

Sure - I'd like to see more of the ammo reserved for the feckless GOP and treasonous RNC itself - as well as the admission that Dubya's policies were destructive - but for now Rome is burning.

Before you can get a solution to any problem, you first have to identify and understand the problem. The identification and understanding should always come before the solution is proposed. I suspect we're at the point where we've accurately identified the problem and clearly understand it. Now is the point when we have to come to some kind of solution.

I don't begrudge people just opening their eyes right now. It takes time to see for may people.

He's [0bama] politically washed up already, but "politics" ain't gonna be what it was. Where have you been?

We are STILL fighting the implementation of0bama's Agenda - despite the PR beating he's taking. You forget that the Left OWNS the media and is scrubbing as fast as they can. It's not exactly a foregone conclusion that his screwing the country will end any time soon...

The neocon media is a day late and a dollar short and offers absolutely no solutions. It's nice to know that a majority now share our concerns, but sharing a box car with them en route to our destiny as we're all bitching in unison ain't my idea of a solution. Is it yours?

ONE "solution" is exposing both 0bama and the Left's agenda and Army of Commies...And better late than never for the neocon/center-right to wake up.

You want this all to go away overnight? I do too, but it's gonna take some time.

Goldi-Pox has done it all by her liddle self. First with the pro-Israel bias, inviting people like Buttsmeller (aka ByteShredder) to post, exercising a double standard by permitting trolling and attacks by protected pro-Israel posters, bannings of people over pointing out her hypocrisy on the Ron Paul censorship she imposed, and then the latest wave of bannings. Goldi-Pox has created an environment where people do not have an expectation of being able to express their opinions freely without fear of retribution for disagreeing with the "Party Lyin'" - which is mostly the Israeli Party Lyin'. Eff her, the Broom she rode in on, and the Bat that followed her.

You are such a GOP troll. She's a pol and as such is entitled to be discussed. Quit running down the voters. She has to please us..... remember? She also had to consent to run with McCain unless you are implying that the GOP kidnaps their candidates.lololol

Now even you are admitting Palin is a slow learner. Personally I would like to know where she stands on the issues, seems none of her beloved admirers can ever put most of them to paper. The ones she has admitted to puts her firmly in the Neocon camp. No thanks, and until she spills the beans I believe this "work-in- progress" is really a progressive like her master.

Disaster, abject disaster, lies at the end of this tunnel, yet people in general are clueless and the government is behaving as if there is no problem as the Sheople merely bleat repetitively.

True that. The problem really is two-fold. One of the biggest is the addiction to Television. I walk down the street at night and it is a very rare house that does not have Idiot Machine on - belching its usual mix of propaganda, disinformation, and Psychiatric Programming in the form of "Reality" shows, Amurkin' Idull, and interspersed with slick commercials focus grouped and tested to push all the right buttons to convince the sheeple that they are not a real man if they don't drink spud and watch the Sunday Gladiatorial Games.

The other major problem is the dumbing down of the educational systum. This has produced a generation now rising to adulthood who are semi-literate, poorly educated, and without hope to do better.

Without a major infusion of energy and time by caring people this culture is doomed. It is not all gloom and doom and there are groups and organizations "doing something about it" but you'll never hear about it on the PsyOps Machine blaring its constant message of Obey and Consume.

Bingo!

That is exactly the point behind all of the attacks on Sarah. While I have my points of disagreement she does seem to be a genuine article. That is what scares the PTB - the fear that a popular movement could coalesce around her - that is resistant to their PsyOps campaigns and intent on reclaiming the country from the crooks and scum now running it into the ground.

It became apparent that she was wising up to the scam back during the Faux Presidential Campaign when the "annointed one" of the Banksters - Oh'bummer - was being set up to "win" the (s)election. Recall that insiders in the McLame Camp started (off the record of course) calling her a "Loose Cannon". That was a clear signal that she was waking up to the real scam and wanted nothing to do with it. Recall also that she started making comments and speeches that were not approved by MuNutz's controllers inside the phony campaign. He was still able to successfully take a dive for the cabal but it was less convincing because of Sarah. That disrupted their PsyOp and she has been a pain their collective asses ever since. GO SARAH!

And each of those commercials is carefully crafted (at least on the national level) to work below the level of normal awareness to implant the "message" and push the right "buttons" to evoke the desired response. It is very sophisticated mental programming and consuming hour upon hour of it does take a toll. I finally bypassed it all in complete disgust and stopped watching Tee Bee going on 6 years ago. For a time I watched "some" - a couple hours a month, but since I do not have cable, by intention, and did not buy a digital converter box I now watch only the occasional movie and a few choice programs I recorded off of PBS - including Julia Child. Lovvvvvve Julia - may she rest in peace. ;-) However even PBS is gone now as a venue of anything much worthwhile. If you look at the level of intellectual engagement in their "programming" today versus twenty to twenty-five years ago it is very noticeably dumbed down and more and more party line. I just love "Front Line" and its Faux Journalistic slant - larded with propaganda and disinformation - which is what PBS has become.

I haven't really paid all that much attention to Sarah. My reaction to her, and opinions, are based more on what the media has done to attack her and distort what she has said. That is my barometer - that the media is trying to marginalize and discredit her are flags that suggest that, regardless of whether I agree with her on anything, that she is likely genuine.
